I took the fact that me mentions a call to action for us to "join this group" as a cue that this most likely didn't air on an actual episode of Sesame Street. Seems to be just on the web with a push for it to go viral.

I am so voting for Cookie Monster. Muppets have been a part of grown-up pop culture as much as they've been there for the wee folk, by the way. So grow a funny bone and see that this is NOT for Sesame Street, this is for bringing awesome to SNL. :D

Why shouldn't a fantastic, public-access show like Sesame Street be promoted? It's a way of ensuring its survival, which all in all supports the greater good of educating our children, rich and poor. And the $$ that goes into promoting it is miniscule compared to $$ fed into political campaigns. Sesame Street is a worthy investment.
